Summary: |
This article examines, from a gender perspective, changes and continuities in criminal law in relation to infanticide, between the mid-nineteenth century and the early twentieth century. The article demonstrates that despite the transformation of the criminal classification of infanticide to the Code and the intentions of State to "modernize" the criminal law -that influenced the coding processes of Latin America-, there were continuities in the legal concepts of the old gender inequalities linked to sexual modesty and female morality, typical of the previous punitive model but, in turn, concomitant with the consolidation of the State. |
